Legend:
ABR VC_f = ABR connection in forward direction
ABR VC_b = ABR connection in backward direction
FRM = forward Resource Management cell
BRM = backward Resource Managment cell
Notes:
• per-VC queues separate rates in both ABR segments
• serving rates of queues dynamically adjusted
≈ = Virtual Source
= Queue with peak rate limiter
ä = Virtual Destination

VS/VD Options
Destination Behavior (ATM Forum TM 4.1 spec. rule 3 options): If FRM cells are received
and turned into BRM cells, while older BRM cells are still waiting for transmission, the
contents overwrite option is supported. The new BRM cell is scheduled in place of the
old BRM cell for in-rate transmission. The old BRM cell is lost.
